Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
Firstly I'm sorry to raise this against "nautilus" but there is no option to raise bugs against "Launchpad" itself, I couldn't raise a bug against any package that contained the word "Launchpad" (despite them being offered in the "Choose" dialogue) and I couldn't find anywhere else to raise the such a bug (Googling for how to do this simply gives thousands of hits on how to use Launchpad to raise bugs against various products) .
This feature request therefore relates to the behaviour of page:

When using launchpad to report a bug it would be nice to have a "preview" function which would allow me to see the bug report as it will look when posted. That way I might catch my spelling and grammar errors before a bug is posted (it's far easier to read text on a page as opposed to in an edit box)
This function should work similarly to the preview function used in many bulletin boards (PHPBB) and Slashdot, etc. where an edit box is always presented with a "submit" and "preview" button. In fact it's not a pain to be always forced to preview your post at least once as I, for one, don't seem able to spot mistakes in an edit control as easily as I can when I'm reading a page (probably because my brain is in "edit" rather than "read" mode :)
